WASHINGTON – The “Beltway Madam” who is shaking up the capital started to make good on threats yesterday to reveal phone records of conversations with her clients – a list that her lawyer said is a roster of government bigwigs.

Former escort-service owner Deborah Jeane Palfrey, 50, posted an excerpt of records from randomly selected conversations from 1996 on her Web site and vowed she will sell the entire black book of sex secrets to the highest bidder to help pay her legal bills.

“It’s a statistical certainty that there are a fair amount of high-profile people who use the service all across the government and private sector here in the metropolitan D.C. area,” her attorney, Montgomery Sibley, told reporters after she was arraigned yesterday.

“I can state with unequivocal certainty this situation will be a very long, unpleasant one” if the entire list is released, Palfrey said on the site.

She added that she has 46 pounds of telephone records to back up her claims.

Palfrey, who allegedly served 10,000 clients, is challenging the feds’ decision late last year to seize $1 million worth of real estate she owns as well as $500,000 in bank accounts under her control.

The list revealed on her Web site did not include any big names or obvious numbers from the White House or Capitol Hill.

So far, the only big name publicly connected to the case is Dick Morris, a political commentator and Bill Clinton’s one-time consultant, who has previously admitted using prostitutes.
